Preface
Becauseasmallfaultintheactualsystemmaycausehugeconsequences,theresearch
onthesafetyandreliabilityofcomplexdynamicsystemshasbecomeanextremely
importanttopic.Inthiscontext,faultestimationtechnologyhasgraduallydeveloped
andbecomeoneofthepopularareasinthecontrolfield.Asweknow,faultdetection
andisolationtechniquesaimtodeterminewhenandwherethefaultsoccur.Unlike
them,faultestimation(FE)techniqueseekstoobtainmorespecificfault’sdynamics
online.Comparedwithfaultdetectionandisolation,FEcanobtainmoreinformation
ofthefault.Generally,FEisachievedbydesigninganobserver.Sofar,avarietyof
different fault observer design methods have appeared, and each method is based
ondifferentideas,sotheyhavedifferentcharacteristics.However,therequirements
of FE are normally stricter, and there are relatively more constraints. Therefore,
there are still a number of challenging issues in FE problems, which greatly limit
theapplicationscopeoftheexistingapproaches.Inthisbook,wemainlystudythe
problemofFEfornetworksystemsincludingnetworkedsinglesystem,multi-agent
system(MAS),andlarge-scaleinterconnectedsystem.Anoveltypeoffaultobserver
calledIntermediateEstimator(IE)isproposedforLipschitziannonlinearsystem,and
aseriesofmodifiedIEsfornetworksystemsarealsopresented.Moreover,thefault
tolerantcontrol(FTC)problemfornetworksystemsisalsostudied.

In Chap. 3, the observer-based fault accommodation (FA) problem for linear
systemswithstateperturbationsandmeasurementerrorsisinvestigated.AnovelIE
isproposedtoestimatethestateandthefaultssimultaneously,wheretheeffectofstate
perturbations and measurement errors is effectively eliminated by fully exploiting
thedesignfreedomofsomespecifiedparameters.Basedontheestimation,anFTC
schemeissynthesized.Itisprovedthatthestatesoftheresultingclosedloopsystem
areuniformlyultimatelyboundedwithanexplicitbound.
In Chap. 4, the FA problem for linear systems with time-varying delay, system
uncertaintiesandexternaldisturbancesisstudied.AnovelIE-basedFTCschemeis
proposed,whereanIEisconstructedtoestimatethestatesandthefaultssimultane-
ously,basedontheestimation,anFTCcompensationschemeisdesignedtomitigate
theeffectsoffaults,systemuncertaintiesandtime-varyingdelay.
In Chap. 5, the robust distributed FE problem is considered for a network of
dynamicalsystemswithexternaldisturbances.Basedonlocaloutputmeasurements
andstateestimatesfromneighbors,adistributedIEisconstructedforeachnode.By
spectraldecompositionoftheLaplacianandproperscalingofthefaultsandthedistur-
bances,aspecially-structuredglobalerrorsystemcanbecreated.Itisprovedthatthe
statesoftheglobalerrorsystemareuniformlyultimatelyboundedwithanexplicit
error bound. The robustness of the global error system can be ensured by directly
adjusting the design parameters of the IEs, without introducing any performance
specification.
InChap.6,westudytheobserver-basedfaulttoleranttrackingcontrolproblemfor
linearMASswithmultiplefaultsandmismatcheddisturbances.Anoveldistributed

estimation,afaulttoleranttrackingprotocolisdesignedtoeliminatetheeffectsof
thecombined signal.Besides,theeffectofunmatched disturbancecomponent can

In Chap. 7, the cooperative tracking control problem for MASs with unknown
externaldisturbancesunderadirectedgraphisstudied.Theleader’sinputisnonzero
andunavailabletothefollowers.Basedontherelativeoutputmeasurementsofneigh-
boring agents, a novel observer-based cooperative tracking protocol is presented,

where the design structure is modified to enhance the feasibility of the estimation

In Chap. 9, the fault reconstruction problem of mobile robots is studied. To be
